TL;DR

Scheduled routes for recurring trip volume — the same trip every day in a fixed time slot, with a dedicated contact and a monthly invoice. Suitable for lab-sample, mail or webshop flows with several stops per trip. A tailored quote based on route, frequency and vehicle.

Predictable transport, predictable costs

Many businesses have recurring transport needs. Collecting samples from the lab every day, deliveries to branches every Tuesday and Thursday, or distributing stock to collection points each week. For this kind of structural transport, Hart voor Transport offers scheduled routes — a planned service that runs like clockwork.

With a scheduled route you do not have to call or book again each time. Your courier arrives at the agreed time, knows the addresses, knows how the goods must be handled and has the right keys or access codes. That way you enjoy the continuity of a scheduled route, without keeping vehicles and staff of your own.

Set up to measure

Every scheduled route is set up entirely to measure. Together we look at the frequency (daily, several times a week, weekly), the stops, the order and the time windows. The route is optimised for the shortest driving time and the lowest cost, without compromising on service.

The advantage of scheduled routes is clear: lower cost per trip through volume and regularity, a courier who knows your business inside out, and dependable, consistent service. Your customers and partners know exactly when to expect their delivery. That radiates professionalism.

What are scheduled routes?

A scheduled route is a standing arrangement for the same trip at the same time — for example warehouse to shop every day, or office to archive every week. The benefits: the same courier knows your address, customers and procedures; a fixed price; no need to book per trip. Hart voor Transport sets up scheduled routes from 3 trips per week.

Arranged in 4 steps

  1. 1 Intake call Route, time slot, fixed contacts, delivery windows. Together we build a driving schedule that fits your operation.
  2. 2 Pilot period (1 week) We run the route on a trial basis for a week, then review timing, vehicle type and any adjustments.
  3. 3 Dedicated courier assigned After the review: one dedicated courier (plus a backup) for this route. You have their mobile number and know their face.
  4. 4 Monthly review A short check every month: is it working, are volumes changing, anything to adjust? No contract lock-in — you can cancel on a monthly basis.

Frequently asked questions

From how many trips is a scheduled route worthwhile?

From around 3 trips per week. Below that volume, per-job billing typically stays cheaper. From 5-10 trips a week, a monthly contract is noticeably more cost-effective thanks to the volume discount tiers.

Do I always get the same courier?

Yes. After the pilot week we assign one dedicated courier. In the event of illness or holidays: one fixed backup courier you also know. You get the personal number of both.

What if volumes fluctuate?

No problem. We review monthly; if volumes fluctuate strongly we adjust the vehicle or time slot. For genuine seasonal peaks we temporarily add an extra trip.

Can we adjust the route in between?

Yes. For example adding a new location, shifting a time slot or including an extra stop. Changes take effect on a monthly basis, in consultation with your account contact.

Do I pay even when there is no trip on a given day?

No. Your contract is based on scheduled trips; if you have no load on a given day, you cancel it. We only invoice trips actually carried out within the agreed volume.

Is a scheduled route more sustainable?

Yes. Dedicated routes are planned efficiently (fewer empty kilometres) and a fixed courier learns the optimisations. CO2 per trip is typically 15-25% lower than separate trips with different couriers.

Do I have to sign a minimum contract?

No. Scheduled routes can be cancelled monthly (1 month notice period). No hard annual-contract commitments — we earn your business through performance, not through legal lock-in.
